01/22 - Skating Through Sunday!

[Kallee]

Yeah, i messaged him about that. Here is his reply...

It is clearly stated in the cover letter that screening questions were being used to get a certain sample demographic. Simply stating the sample I am looking for is not sufficient when collecting data online....people are not honest with their responses and then I end up paying for bad data. The qualification test was a single item about beverage preferences. You were not forced to take the survey and could have simply closed the HIT after seeing that screening questions were being implemented. Screening questions are very commonplace in Mturk surveys, but feel free to avoid any survey that includes them in the future. Enjoy the weekend,

[mod edit]

Wow. What a terrible attitude. Putting your screening message at the END is ridiculous - will avoid this guy.

Correction: Easiest 1.21 I've ever made

"You've received a bonus from Cocosci Lab at UC Berkeley for work related to 30Y6N4AHYPWP6CGARSKZJ0S2Y5KDRA.
The value of your bonus is: $0.21 USD

The Requester included this note:
Thank for participating! Here is your bonus.

Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!"

I didn't do anything!

About the content, not about them existing.

That's pretty much what I meant. The question expressly stated they don't want their hits discussed.

I pretty much hate every hit with 'memory' in the title

I just did this, got the "we don't need you but submit it anyway" message, submitted it, it paid already, and they just sent me a $0.13 bonus. HOTD.

I like how the bonuses vary despite not participating. Must be flipping a coin.

That's pretty much what I meant. The question expressly stated they don't want their hits discussed.

Before they put that NDA/consent form/qual on there people were posting pictures of the inside of the hits. They don't want the content of their hits discussed, not the pay/requester existing/whatnot. They should be treated like a survey, the pay/requester can be discussed but what the questions were/how you answered can't be.

If that's what you're saying sorry I guess I totally misread.

 

[Starslip]

Saying you have a 1 question survey then having 16 parts to that question with writing required for each is some bullshit

that memory test hit allowing me to do it again....

There was a first page that said you will receive a bonus penny for every second waited. I got .71.

 

[Jerami]

Doesn't mean you should. Qualifications, even exclusions, can take a minute to update. Not sure if there was one on that.

 

[Starslip]

that memory test hit allowing me to do it again....

I wouldn't. It says please don't repeat.

Was that on the preview page or first page of survey?

In between. On the load screen.

EDIT Though, it may have skipped the load screen for participants not needed.
